I went down the rabbit hole of one WIP listener’s tweets to CBS 3’s Meisha Johnson

Old man Angelo Cataldi continues to have one foot out the door to his retirement and dipped back into his bag of tricks this morning, summoning CBS 3’s weather girl Meisha Johnson to the WIP Morning Show studios to make sure she receives her recommended daily dose of the heebie jeebies and grill her on her love life.

It’s a tired bit and just an excuse for Cataldi to “help” Meisha “put on her headphones,” but my heart always skips a beat and the sky looks even more blue when this pops up on my twitter feed.

There is nothing better in this world than reading the responses from WIP listeners to Meisha Johnson on Twitter.

Nothing.

Better.

Now, usually I’ll go through these tweets and pick out the best ones, but today is different. The very first tweet sent to Meisha is from a listener @gregfrompotomac who “playfully” encourages Meisha to reveal their relationship on air.

Meisha you got this! Simply tell them you met this amazing gentleman named @GregfromPotomac who treats u like you should b treated #lady 😉❤️

Oh ho! I see what you did there, Gregory! Just some “cute” flirting about the “relationship” you have with Meisha. Well done sir! I’m sure the WIP Morning Show gang will get a good laugh out of it.

Hmmm…maybe we should take a quick look at Gregory’s twitter feed, see what else he’s been up to. Probably just a one time tweet to Meisha to be cute, right? Yeah, probably, nobody would make this a habit, right? RIGHT?!

GREG, DOES THIS EVER WORK?! I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS. They’re not even real roses. Also, you know other people can see these tweets, right? I’m not an expert on women, but I don’t think Penthouse pets are all that impressed with random pictures of roses on Twitter sent from a guy who tweets them out to any woman who comes across his field of vision.

It was about at this point that I started to even doubt Gregory was a WIP listener. But if he doesn’t listen, how does he even know about Meisha? She doesn’t broadcast in his market…every tweet he makes is from Maryland.

Greg, by “nephews” do you mean furiously searching for new weather girls on twitter? I don’t think you’ll be holding those at the gate when she gets home, buddy, THEY’RE NOT REAL. NONE OF THIS IS REAL, GREG, NONE OF IT.

(big ups for the <wink> though, I did enjoy that)

And he’s definitely not a one weather woman man. It goes on. And on. And on. And on. He gets SO much mileage out of that vase of roses picture.

But at this point I just have to respect the hustle, Gregory. Please note the date on that last tweet. March 28, 2016. More than a year and a half worth of vase rose pictures and that’s only because I stopped looking. I’m sure there are more. COUNTLESS MORE.

It was an emotional journey, believe me. I started off creeped out, now I’ve come around to just being completely numb. Would it surprise me if this fella had one of these ladies in his basement and made her perform weather updates for him on a daily basis? IT WOULD NOT. Do I think he does that? Probably not, but he’s not doing himself any favors.

We’ll leave it at this…I must have answers.

Greg….why do you tweet the same picture of a vase of roses to countless female reporters across the country? I HAVE TO KNOW
